Triathalon

A couple of weeks ago I took Gabe and Abby to the Old Fort Parkway for a triathalon (of sorts). They had to run, bike, and swim (actually running thru the sprinklers) down the sidewalk behind the playground. It was so much fun and a great experience for them to do something together.
This is Gabriel at the starting line.
And she's off!

This is at the winner's podium where they received their trophies. They were SO excited. They had no idea that they would be getting them.

This is a shot of them posing in their Small Fry Tri t-shirts. Even though Abby looks mad at the world, she isn't. She doesn't like to smile for the camera.

It was So much fun. We will definately be back next year.

(if a real triathalon involved running thru a sprinkler, I might, just might be able to do one!)

My Best Friend

This is how I found Gabe and Abby one afternoon. They fell asleep in the car while we were running errands. When we got home, I put them on the couch to continue their nap. I had put them on opposite ends, but when I walked thru the living room later this is what I found. So sweet!

They love each other so much. Gabriel especially loves Abigail. He will do anything for her. He gives her anything she wants, and does her jobs for her when she says she is "too tired". He is an Awesome big brother!
